The tryptophan prenyltransferase ComQ from Bacillus subtilis 168 can prenylate daptomycin at Trp1

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
ComQ168 from Bacillus subtilis 168 catalyzes C‐terminal tryptophan farnesylation of ComX to generate a competence‐inducing pheromone. Recombinant ComQ168 also modifies cyclic peptides, including Daptomycin, likely at the N‐terminal tryptophan. Structural modeling highlights a C‐terminal binding region, supporting substrate promiscuity and establishing ...
